clearwater Old Hand Registered: 03/19/05 Posts: 1181 Loc: Channeled Scablands	Anyone have a source for the vials of PET that are blown up to make pop bottles? My son got a chemistry kit with some for test tubes and they are very durable and a standard pop bottle lid fits them. Would make great containers for liquids or for keeping things dry.

There is another one, not Fisher Scientific, that I can't think of at the moment. Fisher probably has them, but in bulk only. EDIT: You mean these guys? http://www.testtubesonline.com/Baby_Soda_Btls_Giant_Test_Tubes_p/207-0031w.htm 41 cents a peice, or just over 82 bucks for 250 of them, without caps- those are five cents a pop if you need to buy them.
